Hayden Panettiere Took Off Her Engagement Ring, And It’s No One’s Business

Hayden Panettiere will take her engagement ring off whenever she wants, thank you very much. After the actress was photographed sans engagement ring in New York earlier this week, theories swirled. But Panettiere swiftly shut down the rumor mill by posting a photo of her, her fiancé, and their child on Twitter Thursday.

"Missing rings don't mean the end of relationships," she tweeted alongside the adorable photo. "Blessed to be with my beautiful family." Well, that settles that. Panettiere has been engaged to fiancé Wladimir Klitschko, a boxer, since March 2013. The two have yet to marry, but they welcomed a beautiful daughter named Kaya into the world nearly two years ago.

So there you have it. Hayden Panettiere will do as she pleases, and she doesn't need you to get worked up about it. If she's wearing her engagement ring, good for her! If she isn't wearing her engagement ring, still good for her! Thanks for clearing up that confusion, Hay.
